This is a strange conclusion.  Tell that to the Turtles who are now
multi-millionaires from managing other peoples money and making consistent
returns in the long run. You may not know but the second largest CTA in the
world is a Turtle.  Or to the private trader who brought $500,000 account
up to $1.7 million last year after learning the Turtles. They think it is
worth a lot more than .

Please understand that the Turtles method is not for the faint hearted or
under capitalised and requires work.  These are qualities only a few people
have. I have heard that Russell Sands will be in Kuala Lumpur to teach the
Turtles to a major bank there in early October. I guess to be a Turtle it
helps if you are bigger than most in more ways than one.  Look at Richard
Dennis's Market Wizards interview- he is larger than life.
